Streaks of 90+

Posted: 19 Jul 2011 05:53 AM

Yesterday was another very hot day in Iowa with high temperatures nearing 100 degrees. It was the fourth day in a row with a high temperature over 90 for Ames. The featured chart presents the yearly maximum daily streak over 90 degrees for high temperature for Ames. Some years, like 2004, the temperature never got that warm for the entire year! Our current streak has a chance of being the longest we have seen in around 20 years.

Voting:
Good = 10
Bad = 6
